Lymphocyte adhesion mediated by lymphocyte function-associated antigen- 1. I. Long term augmentation by transient increases in intracellular cAMP

Lymphocyte adhesion to target cells is mediated, in part, by the interaction of lymphocyte function-associated Ag-1 (LFA-1) with intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). Cells of the B cell line, JY, express both coreceptors and have been used as a model for intercellular adhesion mediated by these molecules. Elevation of the intracellular cAMP concentration ([cAMP]i), by any of several reagents, for periods as brief as 30 min, led to enhanced intercellular adhesion in a concentration dependent manner 5 to 8 h later. Two protein kinase A inhibitors, KT5720 and H-89, but not the protein kinase C inhibitor calphostin C, blocked the effects of elevated [cAMP]i. These data suggest a role for protein kinase A in this response. The adhesion augmented by increased [cAMP]i was due to LFA-1/ICAM-1 interactions between cells because it was blocked by either anti-LFA-1 or anti-ICAM- 1 mAb. Elevated [cAMP]i induced cell surface patching of LFA-1, but not ICAM-1, and this redistribution preceded intercellular adhesion. Finally, redistribution of LFA-1 was not mediated by the cytoskeleton. These results suggest a model in which transient activation of protein kinase A results in increased local concentration of LFA-1 at the cell surface and in augmented long term adhesion mediated by this integrin.
